I did it! Losing over 120 pounds...

Options
I started my journey just under 2 years ago and honestly, I went into it with a negative mindset. I figured I would fail like so many times before. I started tracking using myfitnesspal and took one day at a time. I slowly started to incorporate exercise and focused on my mental health. Something clicked and I realized this wasn't just a diet but a lifestyle. Fast forward of over 700 consecutive days of tracking, I hit my goal and lost a total of 124 pounds! My overall health is so much better!

    Great job! So encouraging! I agree that until we change our mindset, we will always be circling the drain with our weight concerns.
